Chapter 516 Lucky Star (3)

Yu Xi was dealing with things in the study when she saw Yun Qing walk in with a stinky face. Yuxi put down the booklet in her hand and asked: "It's okay, if you haven't found gold and silver, you haven't found it. We still have gold mines!" At the current speed, the gold mines can still be dug for four or five years! For four or five years, the Northwest had already recovered. At that time, even if there are no gold mines, the taxes collected will be able to support ordinary expenses.

Yun Qing said with a cold face: "Although there is no complete statistics, the gold and silver in the secret room should add up to more than ten million. In addition, there are many rare treasures inside." The more money, it shows that Ji Xuan has done evil. The more things happen, the more exploited the people will be.

How could Yuxi not know what Yunqing was thinking, and quickly comforted him: "In addition to the gold mine, didn't we already know that Ji Xuan had mined a silver mine before? I guess the gold and silver in the secret room should come from these two gold mines Silver mines." Not to mention that the Song family will send someone to supervise Ji Xuan, but only that there is a governor Zhang Wenjie watching over him.

The Northwest is a barren land, and the amount of money received by excessive expropriation is also considerable. Ji Xuan wanted to hand over part of the exploited money to the Song family, and he also had to support a group of people under his command. In addition, he also raised 30,000 private soldiers in private, so it was absolutely impossible to save so much gold and silver.

Thinking of this, Yu Xi couldn't help sighing: "Speaking of which, Ji Xuan's fortune is really good." Some people are so poor that they can't find a silver mine in their entire life. But Ji Xuan was lucky enough to find a silver mine and a gold mine. But pretty good, cheap for them.

Yun Qing said: "What's the use of having good fortune? If you have a bad mind, the more money you have, the more crimes you will commit." Seeing the gold and silver and those rare treasures in the secret room, Yun Qing was not happy, but only angry.

Yuxi smiled and said: "When the money is in our hands, it will benefit the people in the Northwest." After finishing speaking, Yuxi explained her plan: "He Rui, with this money, not only can the people below The prefectures and counties can build water cellars in the villages as soon as possible, and also repair all the official roads.” From Yucheng to the northwest, the road is very difficult. This road is difficult, and the speed of transporting food, grass, weapons and sending reinforcements will be much slower.

Yuxi had mentioned these things to Yunqing before, but they had no money at that time, so this matter had to be shelved. Now that Yuxi mentioned it, Yunqing would naturally not refuse: "Didn't you say that you will plant trees on both sides of the road? I think this idea is good."

Yuxi shook her head and said: "Don't worry about this, we'll talk about it after the road is repaired first." The official road must be repaired.

Gold and silver were carried to the warehouse in the front yard, and more than 20 camphor wood boxes were also carried to the main yard. Sister Quan looked at the big box carried by the guards and asked, "What's in it?"

The guard carrying the boxes shook his head and said, "I don't know either, the prince ordered us to send these boxes to the main courtyard." These things are very light, probably less than twenty catties. If they hadn't been instructed to be careful about the contents of the box, they would have carried two of them in.

Sister Quan thought for a while, and asked the guards to carry these boxes to the main hall instead of putting them in the warehouse. Before putting them into the warehouse, they had to check these things first, and then let Yuxi have a look, and then it would not be too late to send them in.

When Yu Xi returned to the backyard, she saw the rare treasures placed in the main hall, even the well-informed Yu Xi was a little shocked. However, Yuxi's concentration was very strong, and she quickly regained her composure, and asked, "How many pieces are there?"

Sister Quan said, "There are a total of one hundred and fifty-four items." Every item here is priceless.

Yuxi was also very interested in this meeting, and looked over one by one. He didn't stop until he was in front of a long brocade box, in which was a long sword. Yu Xi reached out and took out the long sword from the brocade box, a white light flashed in front of her eyes when the sword was drawn out. Even Yu Xi, who doesn't practice martial arts, also knows that this is a precious sword.

Putting the sword back, Yuxi continued to look at it. After turning around, Yuxi picked two things.

One is the night pearl the size of an egg, and the other is the sword he looked at just now: "Send the night pearl to Liu'er's house, and send the sword to Zao Zao in the front yard."

Mother Quan was a little hesitant, and said: "Princess, Zao Zao is still young, will this sword hurt her if given to Zao Zao?"

Yu Xi smiled and said: "It's okay, if the jujube can't be used, Uncle Huo won't use it for her." After finishing speaking, Yu Xi looked at the remaining things and said, "Put away all these things!"

Sister Quan smiled and said, "Princess, I think this emerald cabbage is very beautiful, and it would be a good decoration in the house. Concubine, the room is too clean, I think it should be re-arranged." After rearranging, it feels completely different.

Yuxi smiled and said: "It is okay to rearrange the room, but there is no need to display the jadeite cabbage. It would be a pity if Zaozao was mischievous again and broke this treasure." After Zaozao broke a pair of With the finely crafted white jade embossed magnolia flower holder, Yuxi put away all the porcelain and other fragile items in the house. All the decorations placed in the room are wood carvings or gold and silver carvings, and there are calligraphy and paintings written by Yuxi himself.

Sister Quan pointed to a tree and said, "This one is made of bronze, so it won't break even if it falls on the ground. And I think the meaning of this tree is also very good, and it would be nice to put it in the house after being cleaned. good-looking."

Yuxi took a serious look, this tree carved in bronze was very tall, as tall as more than half a room. The tree has three layers of branches and leaves, each layer has three branches, and the flowers and fruits of the branches are either upturned or drooping. There is a bird standing on the three upturned flowers and fruits, and there are nine birds in the whole tree. There is a dragon hanging from the lower part of the tree. The dragon's head is facing downwards and its tail is upwards.

After reading it, Yuxi shook her head and said: "An object that can be carved with a dragon must have a history. Put it in the warehouse first, and wait for the origin to be found out." In fact, Yuxi doesn't like to put bronze and other antiques in the house , because these things are basically dug out from the ground. It would be fine if they were just buried in the ground, but many antiques were dug out from the cemetery. Yuxi really didn't want to use the things she took from the cemetery.

Aunt Quan pointed to one of the boxes and said, "Let the princess keep this ruby ​​necklace! Even if the concubine doesn't use it, she can leave it to Zaozao or Liu'er as a dowry." Aunt Quan said this because of the cloud The engine is too generous. Having obtained so many good things, nine out of ten will reward his confidants and generals. If Yu Xi named them and left them, these things would not be sent away by Yun Qing.

Yuxi looked at the huge ruby ​​in the middle of the gemstone limit, and said with a smile: "This ruby ​​probably weighs three or four!" Such a big ruby ​​is rare.

Sister Quan nodded and said, "At least three taels. Princess, there may not be such a big ruby ​​in the palace. It's rare to come across such a good thing, so let's keep it for ourselves!"

Yu Xi smiled, but she did not disappoint Quan Nanny's heart. Immediately looked carefully, and then left thirty-six items and put them into Yuxi's private warehouse. After entering the private warehouse, only Yuxi can use it.

Mei Yun handed the sword to Huo Changqing and said: "Old Master, Wangfei said that this sword is for the eldest girl."

This sword is so exquisitely crafted that it can be appreciated as a work of art, and there is an opal inlaid at the end of the scabbard. Huo Changqing looked at the sword and frowned. For Huo Changqing, the most important thing about a sword is its practicality, not its fancy appearance. But it was Yuxi's gift to Zaozao, and he couldn't refuse it.

But when Huo Changqing grasped the sword, he knew he was wrong. Although the sword does not look big, it is very heavy. Pulled out the sword body from the scabbard, and slashed at a knife next to it. With a bang, the knife broke in two.

Seeing this, Huo Changqing couldn't help but exclaimed: "What a sword that cuts iron like mud." Yu Xi didn't know much about weapons, but just knew it was a sword by feeling. But Huo Changqing has been playing with swords all his life, looking at this sword, he thought that this sword was filled with Tianwaishi.

After Yun Qing knew about this, he asked Yu Xi with a smile: "This sword is so sharp, how dare you give it to Zao Zao? Now you are not afraid that Zao Zao will hurt yourself with this sword?"

Yuxi said: "Why not be afraid! It's just that no matter how afraid you are, it can't stop her from going on in the future. In this case, it's better to pave the way for her as much as possible so that she can walk more smoothly in the future. "

Yun Qing nodded and said: "It's good that you can think like this. Zao Zao and Liu Er will take a different path in the future, so don't detain her. Detain her now, and don't let her do dangerous things. For her It’s harmful to say the least.”

Yu Xi nodded and said, "It won't happen in the future." The last time Yun Qing talked to her on the phone also made Yu Xi deeply reflect. Speaking of which, she still plans Zaozao's future with a fixed mindset, hoping that Zaozao can also become a lady of everyone, and she will be a husband and a teacher in the future. But the problem is that Zaozao is different from ordinary girls. When she agreed to practice martial arts with Huo Changqing, Zaozao's future path had already been decided. Therefore, no matter how worried she was, she still tried her best to let go of the control on Zao Zao and let Huo Changqing teach her.

After talking about the sword, Yuxi talked to Yun Qing about the bronze tree that was still in the main hall: "I checked the classics and found out that this tree is called the Bronze God Tree, and the nine birds on it are sun god birds. But What is the meaning of this sacred tree, there is no record in the ancient books."

Yun Qing looked at the bronze sacred tree and said, "Put it away!" It's divine sense and dragon's, how can this thing be used independently.

Yuxi nodded with a smile, and said: "The gold and silver have been counted in the front yard; there are 680,000 taels of gold and 7.95 million taels of silver. It is also thanks to Zao Zao, without her, before It is not yet known when the plan will be implemented.”

Yun Qing said cheerfully: "I told you that Zao Zao is a little lucky star, you don't believe me. Look now, am I right?"

Yuxi is very sure that Yunqing never told her about it. But in order not to hurt Yunqing, Yu Xi blinked her eyes and said: "You are right, Zao Zao is our little lucky star." (To be continued)
